Hanging Out The Washing

We’re hanging out the washing
before we go to bed.
Daddy lowered the clothesline’s end,
we’re pegging baby’s wash cloths,
Daddy pegs his work clothes
at the higher end,
Chloe pegs the wash cloths
at the lower end.
Claire chatters happily and
sometimes pegs a wash cloth.

She’s had a month at school
she’s a proud big school kid now.
The “letter of the week” always
brings her great excitement.
She can’t wait until it’s “u”.
She’ll draw “underpants”
in her alphabet homework notebook
for her kind new teacher.

This baby brother cries a lot,
things get changed around.
Mummy cooked the bolognaise
but then he wailed again.
Daddy put out our dinner
then we ate it, just we three.
